[ecrea] CFP Theorising the Popular Conference

Fri Feb 09 17:50:37 GMT 2018

The Popular Culture Research Group at Liverpool Hope University is
delighted to announce its eighth annual international conference,
‘Theorising the Popular’. Building on the success of previous years, the
2018 conference aims to highlight the intellectual originality, depth
and breadth of ‘popular’ disciplines, as well as their academic
relationship with and within ‘traditional’ subjects. One of its chief
goals will be to generate debate that challenges academic hierarchies
and cuts across disciplinary barriers.

The conference invites submissions from a broad range of disciplines,
and is particularly interested in new ways of researching ‘popular’
forms of communication and culture. In addition to papers from
established and early career academics, we encourage proposals from
postgraduate students.

Feminism/Femininities/Masculinities/Queering/Sexualities/Representations

The conference will be held at Liverpool Hope’s main campus, Hope Park.
Situated in a pleasant suburb of Liverpool, just four miles from the
city centre, Hope Park offers superb facilities in beautiful surroundings.

Papers should be 20 minutes in length. Please send abstracts of 300
words to Dr Joshua Gulam and Dr Jacqui Miller ((ttpconference /at/ hope.ac.uk))
by March 23rd 2018. The abstract should include your name, email

abstracts will be notified by April 9th 2018.
